The vegetable fat will help create a more robust product, less prone to cracking.

Good quality chocolate is made from a cocoa bean the traditional way, without additives and excessive sugar.

"A good quality Easter egg when you bite into it, will give you that nice crackle - what they call a 'snap' - so it will be crunchy, it will be beautiful and shiny and you can actually get a much thinner coating if you use a good quality chocolate.

"So if you're having a nice thin Easter egg or decoration you can do it much more easily with expensive chocolate."

Mrs Yuryevich said vegetables fats also come under the names of palm oil, coconut oil and shea butter.

Products including Easter eggs and hot cross buns have come under fire for containing palm oil, which is often not sustainably farmed.

Anti palm oil groups blame the product for large scale deforestation in Malaysia and Indonesia and for killing wildlife, particularly the orangutan.

Another benefit to good quality chocolate is it often does not contain allergens common in cheaper chocolate. Chocolate made by hand using nut free utensils and good quality dark chocolate (which does not contain milk) can appeal to those with nut and dairy allergies.

"People think 'oh I'm just buying it for the kids, I'll buy the cheap chocolate' but if you use good quality chocolate it negates a lot of the things kids are allergic to, so they don't actually react to a good quality chocolate anywhere near as much as they would to a cheaper brand chocolate," Mrs Yuryevich said.
